About 30 years ago, the Govt of Japan thought similarly. It wanted Tokyo and other big cities to hide power cables underground. Japan finally thought it better not to waste money on it when the hanging between poles system itself is too efficient.Massive effort underway to bury power and telecom cables in all Dhaka neighborhoods.

Dhaka is becoming near to Tokyo and other Japanese cities. Here, every Mahalla has a few children's parks fitted with public toilets and drinking water even within Tokyo.7 Playgrounds and parks around Dhaka opened up for kids' use again with adequate lighting, CCTV cameras and restroom facilities. Some of these had illegal slum encroachments prior - now all cleaned up.

Larger parks are gardens good for adults with children. Japan is a country of flowers. I wish BD to become more like Tokyo and Singapore.
I remember the flower gardens in Singapore both sides of the road while going from the airport.
Dhaka should emulate good cities of Asia. Our two Mayors are very active. A PM alone cannot develop a country/ City.
15 times seems to be a small number. But, Japan's GDP is $5,000 billion that tops the individual GDP of the UK, Germany and France. Together their GDP is $9.198 billion against Japan's $5,000 billion.Now think what we could do once our GDP per capita nominal gets close to Japan's level (which is fifteen or more times that of ours).
A country's look is more closely aligned with the GDP in Purchasing Power Parity(PPP) than Nominal. Because PPP compare things with one yardstick (US market) than Nominal which is subject to exchange rate manipulation. Developing world's local currency is artificially undervalued relative to US Dollar which starts to gain value once those countries catch up with the developed countries. exchange rate sometimes fluctuates wildly often local currency loose value massively against US Dollar which will collapse the Nominal GDP. If our Taka suddenly lose half of its value aganist the US Dollar and start trading at 170 per Dollar, our nominal GDP will show just 200 billion Dollar rather than 400 Billion currently now, but GDP PPP will remain the same. Now if anyone thinks, GDP nominal is the real yardstick, he may think our agricultural+Industrial+Service output suddenly became half, which is not the case. Only Taka lost value, but real things on the ground remain the same.Now think what we could do once our GDP per capita nominal gets close to Japan's level (which is fifteen or more times that of ours).
